HTA on CD is currently free of charge worldwide.The website also provides information about the HTA Programme and lists the membership of the various committees. HTA NIHR Health Technology Assessment ProgrammeT he Health Technology Assessment (HTA) Programme, part of the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR), was set up in 1993. It produces high-quality research information on the effectiveness, costs and broader impact of health technologies for those who use, manage and provide care in the NHS. 'Health technologies' are broadly defined as all interventions used to promote health, prevent and treat disease, and improve rehabilitation and long-term care. The research findings from the HTA Programme directly influence decision-making bodies such as the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) and the National Screening Committee (NSC). HTA findings also help to improve the quality of clinical practice in the NHS indirectly in that they form a key component of the 'National Knowledge Service'. The HTA Programme is needs-led in that it fills gaps in the evidence needed by the NHS. There are three routes to the start of projects. First is the commissioned route. Suggestions for research are actively sought from people working in the NHS, the public and consumer groups and professional bodies such as royal colleges and NHS trusts. These suggestions are carefully prioritised by panels of independent experts (including NHS service users). The HTA Programme then commissions the research by competitive tender. Secondly, the HTA Programme provides grants for clinical trials for researchers who identify research questions. These are assessed for importance to pati...

Effect of a French experiment of team work between general practitioners and nurses on efficacy and cost of type 2 diabetes patients care

“…First, the experience of the UKPDS study demonstrated that the natural trend of HbA1c was to be worsened at a rate around 0.2% per year over a 10-year cohort observation period [38]. Second, the relative decrease in HbA1c here are consistent with the results of other studies with a very similar design and method and for various quality improvement programs: most of the studies observed a rather significant reduction of the Hba1c level, comprised between a 0.4 and a 1.0 point percent reduction, and then an increase in the proportion of diabetes patients under glycemic control [36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44].…”

Patient Empowerment Programme (PEP) and Risk of Microvascular Diseases Among Patients With Type 2 Diabetes in Primary Care: A Population-Based Propensity-Matched Cohort Study

“…The benefit of structured diabetes education programs has been confirmed in systematic review (1) and meta-analysis (2). Although the explicit changes in glycemic control after structured education have been well established, limited evidence (3) has demonstrated the effect of structured education on diabetesrelated complications.…”

Lifestyle Changes in Diet and Physical Activities after Group Education for Type 2 Diabetes—The Active Ingredient in the Education. A Qualitative Study

“…Other studies report a higher effect in education that is compact with meetings closely grouped together [13]. One systematic review reported that education delivered by several educators may improve the effect of education [43], while another review found that only one educator tended to do better than having a group of educators in the educations [14].…”
